[Aurora is humming softly, weaving sprigs of evergreen together, a little bird handing her berries or plants, several squirrels, rabbits, and chipmunks holding twigs or pinecones but she's honestly surrounded by all sorts of animals in her home. A giant fire is going in her fireplace, the whole room gives off a feeling of warmth.]

Al...most.... done. [She held out her hand for a pinecone, the chipmunk handing it to her.] Aaand there.

[She held up the wreath.]

It may not be a traditional Evergreen Yule Wreath, but it is rather lovely.

The dried oranges were an excellent idea. [She said as she turned to look at the giant Eurasian Eagle-owl perched on the back of her chair.] Thank you for the suggestion, Vivek.

If anyone else would like, I have plenty enough to make more wreaths, especially as the solstice is almost here! Thought they may be much more traditional than this. Or, if you would like to imbue it with your own home's warmth and protection, I can show you how to make one.

Of course, you may. What sort of plants would you like in it? Or shall I surprise you?

[facebite]

I dunno anything about plants and crap, sooo... Yeah. A surprise is good.

[beautyrest]

[Aurora is momentarily surprised by the comment before nodding her head.]

A surprise it is then.

[facebite]

Cool. Hit me up when it's done, and I'll come get it?

[beautyrest]

Hit you?! I beg your pardon?

[facebite]

[...um.]

Yeah, duh. Make a fist and smack me right in the kisser. How else are you gonna get my attention?

[Surely, this comment is in jest... poor taste thought it may be.]

I am going to make an assumption that I am being mocked by you at this moment though I cannot understand why you would when I have attempted only an amiable nature and conversation. However, your inclination to insult me for my lack of understanding of modern phrases is duly noted.

Fret not, I will have the wreath done without you sustaining any harm or insult.

[facebite]

[What's with all the staring... It's unsettling??? Also, those are a lot of fancy words she doesn't understand, but Susie gets the gist of what she's trying to say.]

Damn, it was just a joke! Relax!! You don't have to look like I kicked your puppy or some shit.

[beautyrest]

Ah, I see. I regret to inform you, it was not the least but humorous, and it is my understanding that jokes are meant to be funny. [You do not come for the child of Merryweather and Flora like that.] Perhaps you should endeavor harder next time so you can achieve your desired effect.

[facebite]

So it's my fault you're super serious and use a bunch of nerd words when you don't get a joke? Geez.

Just forget I said anything!

[beautyrest]

[Aurora merely lifts a brow, not about to accept the blame for being "super serious."]

It is your fault, yes. You were the one who made the joke, after all. If you cannot handle the criticism that comes from a poorly told joke, then perhaps you should not tell them.

But I shall forget your attempt at humor and your insults.
